A charitable gift annuity is a simple agreement between you and The Masonic Charity Foundation of Connecticut. In exchange for your irrevocable gift of cash or securities, you receive a fixed income for life.

With a deferred gift annuity, the gift is generally made at a younger age, and annuity payments are deferred until a later date and time, typically one’s retirement. The rate is determined by your age when the payments will begin.
